The Distortion Dimension
(IM3LAND2.JPG - 29k)
The Distortion Dimension is one of the many destinations available to inter-dimensional travelers who have lots of guts, wits, and cash to dispose of. As of the time of this writing, nobody has yet returned from this dimension, but several interesting videos have been transmitted from there and will be available for view once we are able to secure licensing rights from TV Producers who currently have exclusive agreements in place. In the meantime you may view some of the TV Producers' favorites by visiting their web sites, or watching for them on the late night music video channels.
As far as we are able to tell, this dimension, like the many others, has been dreamed into existence by several children dreaming the same dream. Although the various dimensions appear to be alien worlds of sorts, scientists have found a pattern that suggests they relate to the cultures of planet Earth, and seem to be built around popular cartoons, comic books, and movies. The Distortion Dimension, however, appears to be some sort of a shrine to popular rock stars, and is inhabited by a motley mix of super power beings representing the gamut from Death Rock to Glam Rock to Amazonian Thrash Punk. We've put together some sketchy details on them from promotional pieces that have been sent back from producers that are stuck there, should you care to know more.
Music video directors from around the world have seen videos sent back from this bizarre world, and are struggling frantically to get the funds together to afford travel there and back. It costs over one million US$ for a one-way trip there, and an equivalent sum to get back home. Most have left in haste with merely enough to get there, in hopes they could strike up big deals with the TV producers here to fund their return trip. Like going to the war zone as a journalist for a hot story, these travelers face overwhelming danger and obstacles. Judging from the music videos and reports that have leaked back, it appears there are some dangerous Guitar Warriors that defend the dimension from exploitation and pillaging. They appear to serve some evil Metal Lord that rules the dimension, and kill trespassers with the sonic energy from their loud metal guitars. The whole world seems even more puzzling than life itself, challenging the daring pioneers who go there with loads of detective work to deal with.
In addition to the million bucks plus to get there, dimensionauts must shell out the dough for a large Personal Media Tower to serve as their base of operations once they get there. This requires getting inside a Coma Tank and sleeping for six weeks, during which time they are teleported along with their personal media tower via Strange Alien Devices that the governments of the world have an exclusive monopoly on.
All in all, it seems a dangerous and perhaps foolish undertaking to go there, but maybe the only reason nobody has come home from there yet is that they like it there so much... Who knows?
